I totally completed the game solo with it. Pick your gear and fights wisely.
I would recommend more armor and fast weapons(big katanas) against fogmen
Felipe Martins 23 May @ 1:00pm 
MORE Challenging?? Bro, i have like 20+ stats than the fogmen and they are kicking my ass... Makes no Goddamnn sense... Love the game but the advancing combat learning curve is just non existent.

Yes, you can do whatever you want with it

Can I directly edit this mod to my personal preferences?
lds_101  [author] 11 Feb, 2024 @ 9:00am 
Yes, bottom is the best option.
Bird 10 Feb, 2024 @ 5:50am 
Where should be this loaded ? at the bottom ?

You can create mod that rewrites toughness cap and load it after this one
Ray-Sama 26 Dec, 2023 @ 1:19am 
Any way you could give a patch for this w/out the toughness 50% cap? love everything else it feels great but would really like to up my toughness a bit more for the specific run im doing. Tysm great mod am loving it.

the mod become a list of mods and I actually took inspiration to your other mods, at least in part (when unlocking 3 slots even in my playtests it seems quite needed) anyway when I was whatching the files in the other mod I think I found some of those things are in the other mod where you also change MCA so I think it's worth to check, anyway I completely retire what I said about MCA: it might not be perfect but also thanks to your other mod it's just perfect and completely integrated into the game, that mod it's a complete improvement even with vanilla moves, I personally like the combat being slower and more calculated but for a faster combat experience I believe nothing tops your mods
lds_101  [author] 17 Nov, 2023 @ 12:56pm 
Look into light stumble animations, they are turned off now. Stumble numbers for toughness level are in general settings, maybe I've moved it back to defaults
Amelio 17 Nov, 2023 @ 12:52pm 
stumble* not thoughness, actually can't find those in the "mod changes" thingy but I'll search better
lds_101  [author] 17 Nov, 2023 @ 10:59am 
Thanks, mate. You can see all the changes in FCS
Amelio 17 Nov, 2023 @ 6:16am 
big fan of your mod to the point that I'm actually creating a my own combat mod inpired by yours and by fair attack turns, how did you managed to modify toughness and dodge?

It already has blocking from behind limited to 35+ or something like this, if I remember correctly

You can subscribe to FocusTheLimb, it should work fine with my other mods.

All those speed and animations tweaks are not possible due to technical limitations
rbalsek 26 Oct, 2022 @ 6:59am 
ty friend.
lds_101  [author] 25 Oct, 2022 @ 3:26pm 
FCS have changes button on the top, it will show all changes in the mod
rbalsek 24 Oct, 2022 @ 2:24am 
Where can I check the block probability, more damage, and more frequent attack opportunities? I can't figure it out by looking at mods in fcs.
Is it something I can't fix?
CollapsibleChair 20 Oct, 2022 @ 9:11am 
@ not a furry you can find them in the advanced options dropdown menu.

I believe chance of death will also decrease bleeding.
But it's already pretty useless and non scary, I see no point in reducing it.
v4underscore 5 Oct, 2022 @ 11:08am 
theres no slider for bleeding, on import or new game :\
all i'm looking for is a mod to reduce bleeding, can't find one :((((
lds_101  [author] 21 Mar, 2022 @ 3:13pm 
>>Ragnaman
We are talking about no stumble for low damage?
Yep, there were animations changes, just open the mod and see what's changed.
Ragnaman 20 Mar, 2022 @ 3:06pm 
I've tried modding stumbling and never saw any difference.

did you change any other values ? curious, maybe i missed something ?
Mazz 6 Mar, 2022 @ 7:34pm 
Nice mod
CollapsibleChair 9 Feb, 2022 @ 12:44pm 
Sensible and makes combat risky. Well worth subscribing.

Thanks, appreciate it!

FIrst off I want to state that I love this mod. I can get bored in Kenshi very quickly as once you hit those high skill levels you can literally 1v1 an entire army. With this mod, even facing 2 opponents can put you in the grave. Don't get me started on Bonedogs. Before facing a pack of dogs was like haha funny dog. Now it's like "screms" as they rip you to pieces. Combat feels more grueling, rewarding, and deadly. No longer an ascended god able to destroy cities entirely alone, now you must plan and use tactics to survive. Seriously good work, love the mod.
lds_101  [author] 31 Jan, 2022 @ 12:31pm 
The easiest way is to tweak damage slider on import or clear beginning. If I remember correctly you can go down to 0.5 damage
when the when 31 Jan, 2022 @ 10:49am 
Could I somehow tweak the more damage from high dex and str and the toughness nerf for higher levels? Fights now in my game tend to be shorter and I like long battles. Thanks
MassiveCodpieceOwner 11 Jan, 2022 @ 4:41am 
>less stumbles
guess there is only one way to find out, ill try to rate this mod after some testing, wish me good luck in hunting glitches.
lds_101  [author] 7 Jan, 2022 @ 10:40am 
It changes only global modifiers, so it should be fine with any race
Baron Crankshaft Bangwhistle 7 Jan, 2022 @ 8:46am 
Thank you for the mod, will this work custom races?
lds_101  [author] 31 Dec, 2021 @ 7:13am 
Heavy armor is much more useful, but you still can use light/medium armor if there are no plans for tanking heavy hitters.

Basically you will want armor because of:
- less resistance bonus from 99 toughness: 50% vs 65 in vanilla
- more damage from high dex and str(overall more damage input)
- x2 attack slots, so potentially more enemies hitting you
- more attack initiative from enemies with higher attack rating

I've run through game solo with these settings and it felt natural on all levels.
RedCollarPanda 31 Dec, 2021 @ 6:22am 
So, with this mod armor is a must have, yes? I have ~60 at all stats. Difference in damage in light armor and heavy armor is not very big, but in heavy I cannot dodge. The question is - mod is for 90+ stats or I dont et something? Bleeding is also doesnt kill ppl too quick
lds_101  [author] 20 Dec, 2021 @ 3:32pm 
It's reworked in a better way, as long as I remember ;)
Just try it out, there is nothing game/atmosphere breaking.
SaltyDwarf 18 Dec, 2021 @ 1:28am 
So how exactly blocking is reworked?
Natasha 8 Dec, 2021 @ 7:18am 
@lds_101 I am ready to die only on the battlefield! :D
lds_101  [author] 8 Dec, 2021 @ 7:12am 
@GOBLIN SLAYER Brace yourself and die like a man ;)
Natasha 29 Nov, 2021 @ 4:44am 
With this mod, the hulling becomes a too quick death.:steammocking:
